Warning - Nextdoor App

CKhalvashi

Just some food for thought; I sat down with a friend this morning who is being subjected to a campaign of harassment via the app (this is public knowledge and he has been cleared of what he has been accused of by his regulator already).

Despite the police being useless in this case, there is no way to 'block' someone in the app that is obvious.

If anyone is aware, please do let me know and I will pass this on.

On the person's profile (tap their name on a post they've made, or search for them), there's three dots in the top right corner. Press that, and there's options to mute, block or report.

 Blocking them only blocks you from seeing them. They can still see your posts, found this out when being harassed on there, unless they've updated it in the last year.

Thanks, I will pass this on to him.

Not good. I'll pass this on too.
